53.75in is your height.
so this is the equation. x(1.2)=64.5
x=64.5/1.2
x=53.75

Otrada [13]

Answer:

Exact heights of the next 100 babies born in a region.

Step-by-step explanation:

A discrete random variable involves two key factors ; discrete and randomness ; Hence, a discrete random variable should have a finite or countable Number of outputs or values. It should also stem from a random procedure. Here, the height of the next hundred babies is a random procedure as the next 100 babies in the region are unknown until Given birth too and as such all pregnant women have the chance of having their babies among. Since, we are dealing with exact height values which are countable (100), then we this is a discrete random variable.

You want to get from a point A on the straight shore of the beach to a buoy which is 54 meters out in the water from a point B o

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$x =\dfrac{45 \sqrt{6}}{ 2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

The diagrammatic interpretation of what the question is all about can be seen in the diagram attached below.

Now, let V(x) be the time needed for the runner to reach the buoy;

∴ We can say that,

$\mathtt{V(x) = \dfrac{70-x}{7}+\dfrac{\sqrt{54^2+x^2}}{5}}$

In order to estimate the point along the shore, x meters from B, the runner should stop running and start swimming if he want to reach the buoy in the least time possible, then we need to differentiate the function of V(x) and relate it to zero.

i.e

The differential of V(x) = V'(x) =0

= $\dfrac{d}{dx}\begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{70-x}{7} + \dfrac{\sqrt{54^2+x^2}}{5} \end {bmatrix}= 0$
